CHAPTER IV.
week elapsed after General Villere received
Mr. Uvingston's letter, before be
, could muster
srifficient - coarage to inform his esteemed friend
tt
. t.` 'Ronde, n.r its contents. 13ut deeming it to be
his "duty, he enveloped the letter in another and
"sent it to him.- Mr. La Ronde was tram home at
the time, and consequently the letter didnotreach
his eye for nearly two reeelm. On his retum, it
was banded to him ; he read it—and doubting the
truth of its contents, sent word to his sou that •he
wished him to come home for aday or two. The
servant bearing this message, brought back intel..
ligence of Henry's absence; he was not at his
boarding house, and lead - not been at Mr. Living•
aeon's office for weeks. This news opened a form.
tam of trouble.in Mr. La Ronde's mind that was
never dried up; Efe_set out immediately for the
city; and searched every corner of it for his eon,
—lnhin vain. Henry was gone, atietmone knew
where; at least, no one would , tell :where. The
news of his being lost soon reached .Caroline Vii
lere - and she told bet uncle of his visit there in
company with Mr. La Grange._ This information
caused a Search to be made for this personage—
and..after using every means_ to find him, without
success, Mr . La. Ronde concluded that La Grange
was murderer, and that he had decoyed Henry
from the eity for the purpose of murdering and
" robbing him. •
This supposed tragical termination of his son's
life, led Mr. La Ronde to reflect upon his careless.
netit in training him; and, upon inquiry, he found
that the.chtuges against hint in Mr. Livingston's
letter were tilLtrae;- Bratptill the, half was.untold.
liaiehis little think of the deep and inexhaustible
.source of4ortow they prepare for themselves by
neglecting to train up their children, especially
their sons, in the ways of morality. The mental
teigttny experienced by Mr. La Ronde soon exhibi
ted Itself op his physical system. His hair became
silveied'; his head sank bitween his shoulders;
and a cough seized hold of him, which in six
months time' terminated his life—verifying the
scriptural provetb: " A foolish ' sort lea grief to
his father!' By his will, General Villere was his
,executor; and his property was divided between
Caroline Villere and a distant relative.
The:conclusion in regard to Henry La Ronde's
absence, had its effect upon Caroline Villera ; but,
she could not be persuaded that the gentlemanly
Mr. La Grange had murdeted him and she en
ertalned, despite every, discouragem ent, the hope
that he would again return.
•
It is well known to all teeters of history, that
our south-western border- was but Poorly prepared
to sustain the attack which was meditated upon
it, by the British-in the winter of 1814—'15. This
circumstance: rendered it necessary to adopt every*
expedient which would yield any force. Now,
althOugh La Eitte was viewed as a dangerous
Min; and; although a price was set upon his
head by the authorities, I believe of Lousiartal
yet, the magnanimous and .patriotic act already
related, so much recommended him in the sight
of his. Excellency, Governor Claiborne, that he
iiirdoned him, and solicited his aid in defending
the'country. This request was readily granted by
La Pitti; and as : soon as he had his new Lieuten
,
ant 'fairly initiated,. he took all his men except
about twenty, and iepaired to New Orleans, for
tlffipurpose, as he contended, of, stitising his re•
vengefulspirit upon the destroyers of his parents:
and, the British had not in that engagement -a
moredetertnined• opponent than the captain of
the_Barittarias.
•
December,
a - beautiful morning, early in the month of
Decern - ber, and about one week after La Fitte's
-departure; La . Ronde entered a small sloop, with
four men, and sailed across the bay, in a south
'easterly direCtion, to the main land.. On reaching
theland, he'left the sloop in care of the men, with
directions to await his return, and set out on foot
towards tbe . G'ulf .shore. As he walked along at
a rapid gait, he mused, "they must be laying off
main.land sothewhere in this direction, It
cannot be that I have mistaken the Ilirection; for
I have paid particular attertioh to . their, gnus
these two days.'' After half an hour'swalk, very
unexpectedly, be came ipon two British officers,
who`were out on a hunting eXpedition. At this
discovery,:he wasdelighted, although, somewhat
confused. Collecting himself, be paused and

his eye at their dress, remarked, --s , I presume gen

THE 'I%II3IIFF.
Mr. Mnacca., an , intelligent Democrat, a Delegate
in the Democratic State Convention, from Bradford
county, offered the following Resolution in that bo
dy, vhicb was unanimously adopted—not being
even objected to by the tedelegate” frotn•Washing
,
ton county . •
Resolved, That the practical workings of the pre
sent revenue laws, dearly demonstrate their isnpe.
riority over =those which linutediately' preceeeed
them. Thus proving that that which was logical in
argument, is sound in principle, and practical in its
elects. All systems which give bounties to panic.
alai interests to the detriment of the great Industrial
classes of tbe Coentry7-which seeks to aggrandize
the few at the expense of the many, are a clear vio
lation of those principles of democracy which pro
claims to all equality of rights.
The opinions of the Democratic party are dearly
exhibited in the above Resolution. The Democra.
cy of the country are every where committed in fa
vor of the " present revenue laws," or the " Tariff
of 1846," and the Federal Whig. and their natural
allies the Conservatives, are committed agaivet those
laws: There nre, however, hosts of " progressive
Whigs," who utterly repudiate the doctrine of "pro
tection for the sake of ;refection."
There is no question that has agitated the public
mind, since the present form of Giorernment hair
had. an existence, which has created io mach ex
citement as the Tariff. The-subject'.has been din.
cussed by grave Senators in the National Capitol,
and by ambitious youths in the lok School house.
And,.betimes, the excitement has run so high on the
question, as to threaten a dissolution of the Union!
In every instance where Congress has been called
upon to act on the subject, the question has been
settled in the spirit of compromise—the extremes of
opinion yielding, for the purpose of producing peace
and-harmony,.and saving our beloved country from
internal convulsions.
Now Whit is a' Tariff, about which so much has
been said t It is simply a duty or tax, levied by
Congteu l . upon articles im p orted - into the- Gelled
..
States fiem foreign countries. For what purpose is
- this duty raised? To 'rapport the General Govern
ment. Who pays the duty The man who par.
chases, or consumes the article imported. To Mos
' trate this, we will suppose that a piece of broad
cloth costs $3,00 per yard in England—the freight
or carriage paid to the ship owner Is, say, 50c per
yard. The Custom Rouse officer collects 30 per
cent, ad valorem, or 90 cents on the yard ; which,
added to the drayage, storage, &c., would make the
cloth worth abOut $6,00 per yard, before it is remo
ved from Uncle Sam , s keeping. The wholesale
dealer adds at least 25 per cent. for his profits, which
would bring the price up to $6,25. The country
merchant or retail dealer adds for his profits, say, 25
per cent. more. Thus, the yard of cloth, which
originally cost but $3,00 in England stands the man
who has it manufactured into a coat at learn $7,81}1
This is certainly a pretty severe tax upon the con
sealer; but as long as the preaint system of collect
ing ft:ante endures, it must borne.
The “Compromise Act," sp it was called, expired
by its own limitation, In Iti42. The Law_ passed
that year, known as the “Tariff of 142, , 2 was but a
temporary expedient, forced through Congress, upon
the'eva of ita adjournment, so as not to leave the
country without revenue. It was opposed by the
whig clambers and the whig-party generally, solely
for the purpose of crippling the country, and leay.
ing the then Administration Withnut the sinews of
war... , it was found, however, suhsequently, that
the . Act of 1842, was unequal and unjust in its op.
emtions,--oppresaing the poor and benefiting the
richp--building.up monopolies, with special privi
leges, which were inimical to the well-being of So
c:ety. Hence the Whig party, as a matter of course,
became itspecoliar champions, and the Democracy,
with the exception of the “fisl42l politicians, became
its deadly opponents. The Tariff of 1842 was ob
jectionable, chiefly on account of its specific system
of duties,—i. e. all articles of the same name bad a
like-duty imposed upon them, it Mattered not what
might have been the cost of such articles. Thus,
the individual who purchased a yard of the coarsest
-cloth, paid as much duty or tax to the Government
upon it, as the individual who purchased and wore
the most costly article imported. But this is what
the whip and conservatives call a protection it
is such uprotection” to the:poor as the wolf extends
to the iamb !
But the people throughout the country, with a
voice almost unanimous, loudly called for the repeal
of this unjust and iniquitous measures. And a
change was made. Congress passed, the present
revenue laws? known as the Tariff of 1846; and
every candid man must admit that thee laws have
operated beneficially, and have more thak met with
the expectations of the country. Thepriracip/e up
on which the Tariff of 1846 is founded, is certainly
a correct one. It adopts the ad ea/arm systedt of
duties instead of the specifie. It is essentially a
revenue Tari f f; and its democratic authors and
friends are opposed to raising more revenue than
will meet the wants of an economical administra
tion of the government.
The Tariff of 1846 has thus far worked gloriously.
Under its equal operations all the great interests of
the country,. manufacturing, commercial, agricultu
ral and mechanical, have been .■ protected' , alike.
It dispenses its blessings with an impartial hand.
And nett+ ithstanding the croak ing conservatives and
panic whip, have been growling and whining per.
petually, predicting . that the country would go to
destruction and Its manufacturing interests be s'ru
inedt,, yet the fact is us clear ias the noonday sun,
that the country never was in a, more prosperous
condition than - during the petled the:present resent:le
laws base. been in operation. There lino justemise
of complaint In any Ostler. All the great lutitiiiht
of the country are flourishing, and the people are
prosperous and happy.

Mr. Forrest eiseDrautatie Writers.
IL T. Cortit&o, and one of the most successful of
our dramatists, has addressed Mr. M , Makin, of the
Model Courier, a lettei in reply to tho attack of a
Boston newspaper upon Mr. Forrest. The charge
was that Mr. F. had been illiberal in his treatment
of dramatic writers. The author of “Jack Cade;
says:
"No man has been so large spirited and liberal to
dramatic authors in this country as Mr. Forrest. He
has paid more, probably than_ any living being to
support and encourage that branch ofliterature; he
has expended generous amount , ' upon efforts from
which no return could be expected; and has acted, I
have every reason to believe, to those whose pro
ductions have , proved successful, in the largest and
noblest spirit of liberality. A crawling and mean
- malice—one which the heart of the country discard's
—has recourse to many paltry measures to wound
.the reputation of a man of whom it may be said, as
-Cicero said of Roscius, the theatre knows the least
of his merits; but the last and worst exhibitions of
this spleen is to be found in the ridiculous assertion
that be has. done injustice to the dramatic authors of
America."
Abbott Lawrence.
The democratic press very generally, and some
of the whig press, do not approve the appointmept
of Mr. Lawrence as minister to England. Aside
from his very moderate talents and capacities, and
his want of the necessary qualifications of adiplo•
matte functionary, who should, to represent us
ably at the court of St. James, be a man of the
first order of talents end well versed in the law
nations. Mr. Lawrence is objected to on other
gronnde . Respecting his appointment, the New
Haven Register remarks:
"A writer in the Journal of Commere very pros
perly disputes the propriety of sending such a man
as Abbot Lawrence as minister to England! a man
who is bound , up in the belief that the old and ex
ploded protection policy is best for the world, and
particularly for Massachusetts. He is the man
who predicted that the present tariff law would
ruin this country, and fail for revenue purposes
besides—ed that lie is a poor prophet, as well as a
poor statesman. He is therefore a very unfit re•
tpretentafive of
,the liberal and wise commercial
,policy now so popular in this country. All his
:influence 3011,be thrown in fayor of the restrictive
IpoliCy of the middlexges. He is behind the times.
:He Is mot_ the man to stand between us and the
great nation who is our principal customer and

The theorrof contagion assumed that certain dis
eases were communicable from one person to anoth
er by actual contact, almoat irrespectively of atmos
pherical or even constitutional conditions—that is to
say, that plague or typhus might be corveyed from
the patient to the physician, and from the physician
to any third party, although the circumstances of no
dality or predisposition were . wholly changed.ln
ordinary cases, this propagation of the malady . was
held to be almost a matter of certainty, and even if
the person originally brought in contact with these
teal patient should happen to be proof against the
contagion, yet it was thought that he Could carry
the poison upon his skidor his clothes in such a staid
of activity tie to be communicable to any parties less
fever-poor than himself. At first, this virus was
supposed to be something as real and palpable as
that by`which certain cutaneous maladies are propa.
gated, or as that contained in vaccine matter.: At
terwards, when acienufie researches pointed to some
less substantial farm of atainapheric influendiruka_,
principal agent, it was still argued , that there was I
still room for contagion; for that the virus of the at
mosphere might be so highly concentrated, and, as
it were, iespissatcd, by aggravating circumstances,
as tube capable of being' deposited on articles of
merchandise, furniture, or clothing, and of being, in
such form, transmitted to, distant countries and die
similar climates. These imaginary deposits. re
ceived, in technical language, the name of fondles,
and, though not palpable to the senses of perception,
were conceived to contain the seeds of the disease.
in question, as truly , as the eggs of a spider are con.
tabled Mita nest.
It was against such dangers as these that +Tumor
tine regulations have been directed, it.being suppo
sed that material importations could be excluded by
material harriers ; and undoubtedly, when the prem
ises have ueengranted, it would be hard to resist the
conclusion. It is true that throughout the operations
of this system facts wholly_irreconcilable with .the
principles thus maintained were continually preiteo
dug themselves, but so strongly was,the tenacity of
popular error here exemplified, that the quarantine
regulations were still preserved, even after the good
which they effected had become extremely proble
matical, while the evil which , they caused was more
and more manifest. At length two conclusions were
propounded, and, we may almost venture to any,
established. The first of these was, that there was
little or no generic difference between epidemics
and the second, that they were not tram:unable at!
terany such fashion as that combated by the insti
tutions of quarantine.
It is not remarkable that diseases so externally
different as those of plague, typhus, scarlanua,
fever, influenza and cholera, should have been
thought to depend each on their own specific con
tagions, but the report before us enumerates the fol
lowing important conditions as characterizing the
entire class:
They are all fevers; they are all dependent on
certain atmospheric conditions; they all obey simi
lar laws of diffusion; they all infest the same sort of
localities, they all attack chiefly the same classes,
and, for the most part, persons of the like ages; and
their intensity is increased or diminished by the
same sanitary and social condition - B.D
In fact, there is not wasting evidence to show
that epidemics in all ages have resulted from the
same infraction of sanitary rules, and that the par.
neuter form assumed by each at its outbreak is dc.
terminable by the accidents of atmosphere or *Ca*
sort. What is influenza one year is chutes the nest;
what is plague in one latitude becomes typhus in
another. Conditions which generate yellow fever
in Barbadoes, generate typhus or scarlititui-ic Eng
land. and it is a very remarkable fact that when the
cases of typhus have been imported, Alis has some
times happened, into the West Indies, they
been trunantaneously , extinguished by the atmosphere
of the tropics. In fact, the English plague cannot
live in Jamaica, nor the Weut India plague in Eng ,
land, although it is not a little curious, as demon.
stratlng the true atmospheric origin of these mala

presumed. On head the report will be found to
embody conclusion* which, though certainly not
novel, are nevertheless presented with naaanal em
phasis and supported by en irresistible selection of
facts. As regards the propagation of contagion by
merchandise, it is proved beyond the possibility of
denial that if the theory were correct, Manchester
must bare been long, ago ravaged by an oriental
plague. When this fngbtful scourge was raging
with the utmost violence at Alesarieria some years
ago, thousands of bales of cotton goods—aupposed
to be a material of the very highest susceptibility in
this respect—were shipped from the Egyptian port
to England. The cotton was taken from the Gov
ernment stores, where uie plague was making the
greatest havoc; it watt-stowed away by working
parties of natives, who were repeatedly seized with
the disorder during the operation; it was packed
into the closest possible space, and battened down
with the most scrupulous care, as if to preserve the
contagion in its most concentrated form. :Yet, al
though the s:iip , a crew suffered fearfully ID the port,
they carried no seeds of toe disorder away with
them, not wee any single instance known of any
porter or officer being seized with the phigue;aller
ripping open, mpacking, and handling these con
taminated hales.
The propagation of contagion by personal contact
is disproved by factsof equal clearness, It is very
sensibly observed that if the hypothesis weresound,
the track of any persoe carrying the contagion ought
to to marked by a train of dead and dying, and that,
in point of fact, the hamaa race could scarcely have
survived the ultimate consequences of suchcondi
tines. Norio any stress to be laid upon the facts
which have been recently observed in Liverpool and
Glasgow, connected with the immigration of Irish.
What these unfortunate creatures d d was, not to
Import In matured activity a specific and definite
malady, but to add c swarm of impoverished -in
mates to dwellings and localities already overcrowd
ed. They made misery more wretched, uncleanli
ness more squalid, and privations more insupporta
ble. They created the generative conditions of fe
ver by their accumulation of numbers, their habits
:otfilth, and their state of destitution. The results
would have been the same, from whatever quarter
the Importation had taken place; and indeed, the in
gredienta of an epidemic are now so accurately un- derstoud, that though it might not be possible to car•
ry one alreadtmasufbctured across the Atlantic, yet
no difficulty would.be experienced in generating the
worst type of fever in any spottbat might be-select

no less than its unusual extent.
The Crisis In Canada!
BRITISH DOMINION ALMOST AT AN END!
It is evident that a conflict in approaching In Can
ada, which will terminate in the complete overthrow
of British dominion lithe New World: The British
party in Canada mnet give way to the advancing col
umn of Democratic Liberty. We copy below from
the Montreal Gazette of the 4th of July, an article
which clearly indicates that the day of Canada's free
dom is near at hand:
[From the Montreal Gazette, July 4.]
The moat important news that has yet arrived in
Canada from England, since the conquest, cowshed
Montreal last night.
They comprise the debate and
division in the
House of Commons, on the Canadian Rebellion losses
bill, and we venture to say that never was there de.
bate nor division in that House, that involved greater
consequences to us.
The downfall of British power in America will as
assuredly flow from the decision the British Parlia
ment has come to upon this question, as that British
power now exists in Panada. It may be soori or it
may balite. From the temper of the people it can
not be very late, although Lord Elgin and his pres
ent ministry undoubtedly have it in their power, to
raise a storm which may precipitate it.
We have received'a copy of the letter written by
the under Secretary of State for the Colt:mita, to Sir
Allan N. IvlcNab, la reply to the petitions which Sir
Allan had then resented.
It is the coole lt pieta of overweening official into.
lence which it has been our lot to read, considering
the immense interests involved. _
Mr.klawes takes it upon hire to state that.the pe
titioners are'under an entire misapprehension as to
the Rebellion Louse bill; that', in ' fact, they know
nothing about it, ant that they are a paclroi insen

The famous Bay of San Francisco, -about
which so much has been said and Stint is:formed
by a long peninsulartract of land, which separates
its waters from the ocean, and runs in a direction
nearly southeast and northwest. This peninsula
widens as you approach Monterey, gradually en
crawling upon the waters of the bay, forming a
curve bounding the eastern and southern shores of
this magnificent inland sea. Near its'northern
terminus is the entrance to the bay, near which is
the harbor and town of San Francisco. Butal
though the Bay of San Francisco it one of the
most extensive and completely landlocked bays
lathe world, (having no communication withtbe
ocean, except through its 'one narrow outlet of a
mile and a half in widtb,) it is only one of three
bays all connected with each other, and forming
together an extent of nearly two hundred miles,
from north to south, of inland navigation. After
eotering the southernmost of these three bays,
(San Trancisco,) a bnaad channel, equally as wide
as that at the antranie, and of sufficient depth of
water to float the largest ships, conducteinto the
bay of San Pablo, through which there is a beat
ing channel three miles broad and of from seven
to fifteen fathoms of Water in delith. From the
Bay of San Pablo, which trends in a north-etisterly
direction, you enter the Straits of Carqaines, which
ate from or.e mile and a half to two miles broad
and about six miles long, leiding - to the northern
of the three bays forming the chain, whickis cats
led the Suisun Bay. In the Straits of Carquinea
there is efficient depth of water for the targestclass
of ships; but after entering Suisun Bay, thettavi
vistt(fof: any, except .of light
draught) is pievented by the want of sufficient
depth of water. This is occasioned by its being
the reservoir or receptacle of enormous annual de
posits of alluvium, brought down by the rivers
Sacramento, San Joaquin, and there numerous tri
butaries, from the mountains and plains through
which they flow`for hundreds of miles. The head
of ship navigation, therefore, is in the Straits of
Carquines, about thirty.five miles in a northerly
direction from San Francisco. At this point a
town is springing up rapidly, which seems destin-
ed, at no distant period, to rival .San , Francisco in
importance, over which it possesses great natural
.advantages, as you might see by looking at the
map. It he first place, it is at the head of ship
navigation, and is surrounded on all sides by the
most fertile agricultural districts in Northern Cal
ifornia. The Sonoma, Nappa, Sacramento and
San Joaquin valleys, are all tributary to this point
which is the centre of so many radii; while San
Francisco has TO .back country, being situated at
the extreme end of a long and narrow - neck'of
land which separates the Bay of San Francisco
- from the Ocean, and which is one of the most
bleak and barren tracts of land in all Northern
Califozpia.
God's World.
Though I admit this world is sufficiently sor
rowful, and to a certain extent properly termed .a
‘l l / a le of Tears," yet do I not fully sympathise in
those sickly repining. at its miseries and vanities,
which are too commonly drawn out from the put.
pit; for the world is the work of God, and it is
correspondingly beautiful—beautiful surpassing
description. Its mountains and its Nalleys, hills
and plains, rivuletit, lakes, oceans; its infinitelg di
versified forms and colors; for-it. embraces all the
hues of the rainbow, variously blended,and corn
bined; all are beautiful. Then the sun pours down
upon it a flood of glory by day, and the moon
mantles it with a silver radiance by nighti and oh,
is not the canopy beautiful when it is scintillating,
with its millions of stars? And there is much of
moral beauty in this much abuaed world of 'oars,
meagre all that the bigot and the cynical philoso
pher many say tothe contrary. See, for instance,
maternal love strong as death, bendingoVer the
cradle of infancy, and the couch of affiietion;Ysei
hearts united by_ mutual affection reciprocally sus
taining each other through long years of trial and
suffering; see, in short, amidst the darker aspects
of human life, on which gloomy theologians are
wont to dwell, here are transpiring a thousand
scenes to engage the approving. notice of allvseeing
Heaven. Yes, this is a beautiful world.—Rev. G.
